Some photographers just seem to know how to capture dramatic, engaging landscapes. You can develop your own artistic eye and take your landscape photography to the next level with us!Join instructor Eli Vega on this three-day course, which introduces both the seven principles of effective composition and the Composition, Depth-of-field, and Exposure (CDE) model of landscape and nature photography. Together, these frameworks help photographers of all abilities create more compelling, interesting, and dramatic images.On the first evening, participants will get an orientation to the CDE model and gain an understanding of how dramatic photography occurs where technical know-how and creative aesthetics meet. On the second and third days, participants will apply their knowledge in the field, with the opportunity to photograph numerous sites around Rocky Mountain National Park while receiving real-time guidance and coaching from their instructor. Constructive feedback on participant’s images will be provided throughout the course, allowing participants to hone their skills throughout the course.
